Bag om Societies Of The Crow, Hidatsa, And Mandan Indians

The book ""Societies Of The Crow, Hidatsa, And Mandan Indians: Anthropological Papers Of The American Museum Of Natural History (1913)"" by Robert Harry Lowie is a comprehensive study of the social structures and cultural practices of three Native American tribes - the Crow, Hidatsa, and Mandan. The book was originally published in 1913 as a part of the Anthropological Papers of the American Museum of Natural History.The author, Robert Harry Lowie, was a renowned anthropologist who conducted extensive fieldwork among the Native American tribes of the Great Plains region. In this book, he presents a detailed analysis of the social organization, kinship systems, religious beliefs, and economic practices of the Crow, Hidatsa, and Mandan Indians.Lowie's research is based on firsthand observations and interviews with tribal members, as well as historical and ethnographic sources. He provides a thorough description of the social hierarchy and political organization of each tribe, including the roles of chiefs, warriors, and commoners. He also explores the complex kinship systems and marriage practices of these societies, as well as their religious beliefs and rituals.In addition to the social and cultural aspects of these tribes, Lowie also discusses their economic activities, including hunting, fishing, agriculture, and trade. He provides a detailed account of the material culture of each tribe, including their clothing, tools, and weapons.Overall, ""Societies Of The Crow, Hidatsa, And Mandan Indians"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Native American history and culture, particularly the social structures and cultural practices of these three tribes. Lowie's meticulous research and detailed analysis provide a comprehensive picture of these societies and their way of life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
